Bwaaaaahhhaaaaa....You still haven't learned you worthless retard, yeah Joe Scumborough "was" a Republican but he married a Democrat, works for Demonrats at ShitMSNBC, and he is totally a liberal establishment like all the rest of the tards on the hill. Figures you go to the pigeon sisters when you dont like what you hear. Jeb Bush was a Republican like his daddy also an establishment puke along with his brother..Do you do drugs? You have a recollection of a gnat..The special counsel, after a two year investigation, stated that Russia posed a “significant threat” as it increased the frequency and intensity of its active measures.
FBI director Chris Wray concurred. “The Russians are absolutely intent on trying to interfere with our elections,” he said.
The Senate Intelligence Committee released a wide-ranging report that detailed Russia's attempts to hack US election infrastructure during the 2016 election, urging states and the federal government to do more to prevent election cyber- attacks in the future.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) blocked two election security measures last week, arguing Democrats are trying to give themselves a "political benefit."
Republicans in Congress have not sponsored an election security bill that has made it to the floor.
Today, McConnell felt it was necessary to defend his decision, but the undying Trump loyalist only provided a diversion. He defended himself against an imagined critique. A critique he chose rather than the real one.
Mitch McConnell took to the Senate floor Monday to blast the "hyperventilating hacks" who have accused him a being a Russian sympathizer.
He compared the attacks to "modern-day McCarthyism."
These are the attacks he chose. No reliable, respected news source has labeled McConnell a "Russian sympathizer."
Then McConnell made the mistake of singling out the cause of his angst. "Over the last several days, I was called unpatriotic, un-American and essentially treasonous by a couple of left-wing pundits on the basis of bold-faced lies," McConnell said. "I was accused of aiding and abetting the very man I've singled out as an adversary and opposed for nearly 20 years, Vladimir Putin."
Those "left-wing pundits" are Joe Scarborough of MSNBC fame and Dana Milbank of the Washington post. Those two left-wing pundits do not speak for the American people, the news media, not even MSNBC or the Post. They expressed their personal opinions.
McConnell chose these two as targets because, like Trump and his outrageous, immature tweets, the majority leader thinks Trump's gullible base will believe his rant and ignore the real reason he blocked the two bills and the harsh criticism that immediately followed.
Like Trump, McConnell chose extremists views and characterized them as representative of the news media. Once again, only Trump's base will believe such nonsense. No serious news correspondent believes McConnell is a communist sympathizer. That is absurd.
McConnell's reason for blocking the two bills is much more basic. He got marching orders from his boss. According to his boss, the Russian threat is just a "ridiculous hoax."
"There was no defense to this ridiculous hoax, this witch hunt, that's been going on for a long time, pretty much from the time I came down on the escalator with our first lady," Trump said after Mueller's testimony.
Joe Scarborough isn't a liberal. He's a republican. He was in the House as a republican for Florida's first district for 6 years.
People who disagree with trump come both from republican and democratic parties.
I don't usually agree with Scarborough but he got it right this time. mcconnell has blocked very needed legislation for the simple reasons that he and trump need the help from russia and mcconnell took thousand of dollars from a few election machine manufacturers. It will cost them money to change the machines. But mostly, he and trump need that help from russia. Both of them aren't well liked.
